Do You Think This is Racist?

I'm being straight up and honest, I think atheist are the cream of da crop in a world of theist. I say this because I know one thing about all atheist, they can figure out B.S. That's why I'm asking this pointed question, do you think this is racist?

So the picture (phenotype) doesn't give any clue to racial bias? The idea of "perfect" is subjective and if you have one world view (scientist agreed, western scientist I'm willing to bet) of what "perfect" is, and promote it as such, that is bias, when applied to one culture's idea of perfect in the sense of asthetics, (symmetical) becomes racial bias.

Why does symmetry have to be "beautiful?" It can be balanced but that's different from beautiful. Some cultures consider large nostrils in disproportion (not balanced) to the face as beautiful or "pretty."

Craig, Craig, Craig...I don't think I can ever get through to you..there was no need to use words, did you see her face? lol damn...denial, we don't need denial..you went so far as to find there's no god, don't stop there..

So the fact that they picked a white face is prima facie evidence that they are racists?

Look they had to pick somebody's face. I guess the fact that this was done in the UK doesn't excuse them from having to deliberately select an African face (that is one whose ancestors left Africa more recently than mine did), even though Africans are a much smaller proportion of the population there than they are in the US.

Of course if they deliberately selected an African face because it was African and they wouldn't want Shabaka to think they were racist... that would be deliberately selecting someone because of their race and that would be, well, racist!

Do you have any notion how absurd you look, pushing this grievance here?
